I just received Das Leban I'm Wasser tropfen this afternoon. The diagrams are excellent and with Google translator I will be able to navigate the German to English. Love your channels and I look forward to being a microbe hunter myself. I just ordered a microtome after watching your videos. Keep up the good work 👍
I like the live, especially when thing don't turn out perfect. Bob Ross use to call them 'happy little accident'.🎃 And it help us more because you show us it's not always perfect the first time and how to make it better from there. Love from Montréal!!!
If changing temperature and humidity is an issue you can get a large insulated bag usually used for groceries then throw some silica packets in there to remove any moisture. Boom. No more problems.
What's a 'behunter'?
Hello! Where can I find this razor blade holder?
